Gah! This book!I adore it, I loved it, I just couldn't get enough. Of course I got my hands on the next books ASAP, but that's a story for tomorrow.Natasha's a ballet dancer, #jealous, but she's got issues too. I loved her soo much. She's such a believable character and I loved how she had an issue that we see a lot in today's society-especially with teens. She inflicts pain on herself and she knows it's wrong but she just can't stop. Darrell is a freaking gazillionaire-haha just kidding, he's only a multi-millionaire-and he's good looking and smart. Can I just get a fan and a mop to pick up this ocean of drool around me. Damn! This man is amazing. He's dealing with so much, all these demons, and yet he's still so lovable!The characters in this book just deserve an award-no, Helena you deserve an award, and I deserve a cupcake! But seriously I loved the characters. They were very realistic and amazing, I just fell in love.

"You're beautiful," he said,and it was so out of nowhere that I wobbled."Sorry" he said quickly."But you are."

The chemistry between these two was there from the beginning and you could easily see it, I'm pretty sure even a blind person could tell. It was really adorable how they both interacted with each other. It was the type of love and awesomeness that everyone wants to find in their life. The plot was very well developed except in one or two places but that was minor and I didn't really care for it because I was too focused on Natasha and Darrell (where do I find a man like that?!?). I do really recommend that you pick this book up, but be aware this book has some situations that only people 17/18 years or older might be comfortable reading.Rating: 4 out of 5 stars!!
